Age: 80 years
Gender: Male
From the case:
Radial styloid fracture
{"current_user":null,"step_through_annotations":true,"access":{"can_edit":false,"can_download":true,"can_toggle_annotations":true,"can_feature":false,"can_pin":false},"extraPropsURL":"/studies/51095/annotated_viewer_json?lang=us"}
Cortical disruption and lucency through the base of the radial styloid, consistent with fracture.
From the case:
Radial styloid fracture
{"current_user":null,"step_through_annotations":true,"access":{"can_edit":false,"can_download":true,"can_toggle_annotations":true,"can_feature":false,"can_pin":false},"extraPropsURL":"/studies/51122/annotated_viewer_json?lang=us"}
Further oblique and lateral views clearly delineate the radial styloid fracture.
Case Discussion
This case demonstrates the difficulty on diagnosing or excluding fractures on a single projection. Always trace the cortex of each bone to make sure there is no disruption.
